Hi everyone, im building my first computer/hackintosh and have a few questions...
(sorry if i posted this in the wrong place just made my account)
This is my build:
HARDWARE
bitfenix prodigy
ASUS P8Z77-I Deluxe (m-itx)
Asus Gtx 650
Western Digital WD Black
Rosewill HIVE Series HIVE-650
CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (low-profile)
Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge (I plan on overclocking to 4.0ghz)
Corsair Neutron Series GTX (boot drive)
COOLING
NZXT Havik 140
BitFenix Spectre All White 230mm (front intake)
Corsair Air Series AF140 Quiet Edition (exhaust)
SIDE NOTES
I want my system to be cool and quiet
I don't wont to go for the h100 because it is pretty noisy and takes out the option for a dvd drive if your going for the 240mm rad.
I don't want any noctua fans or air coolers because they look like camel.
I don't want to spend any time fiddling with fan speed reducers or molex things to quiet down my fans. Im kind of new to building a pc so i want it to work good and quietly out of the box?
QUESTIONS
Does anybody know if the Havik 140 will fit in the prodigy and will it have any clearance issues with the motherboard? (my ram is low-profile so that shouldnt be a problem.)
Is there a better setup you reccomend for cooling? (e.g. h80 or another tower cooler)
Thanks everyone!^_^
